Gold (GC=F) futures started the week strong, opening at $3,458.10 per ounce on Monday, marking a 0.6% increase from Friday’s closing price of $3,439.10. The price of gold had peaked at $3,477 midday on Friday. This uptrend in gold prices comes amidst the implementation of President Trump’s reciprocal tariffs, including levies on 1-kilogram and 100-ounce gold bar imports from Switzerland.

Investors are closely monitoring economic data to gauge the impact of tariffs on prices and to anticipate future Federal Reserve actions regarding interest rates. While the CPI report for August is still a few weeks away, July’s CPI data is set to be released on Tuesday, with analysts expecting a year-over-year increase of 2.8%, up from 2.7% in June. Additionally, most analysts are predicting a 25 basis points interest rate cut by the Fed in September.

Rising inflation and lower interest rates typically drive up demand for gold as investors seek to hedge against economic uncertainties. Gold has historically served as a safe haven asset in times of market turbulence and inflationary pressures.

The opening price of gold futures on Monday represents a 2.7% increase from the previous week’s opening price of $3,367.60 on August 4. Over the past month, gold futures have gained 3.8% compared to the opening price of $3,330.50 on July 11, 2025. Year-over-year, gold has seen a significant increase of 42.8% from the opening price of $2,422.30 on August 9, 2024.

Investing in gold is a strategic process that involves setting goals, determining allocation, choosing a form of investment, and considering the investment timeline. Gold has long been considered a valuable asset for diversification, protection against inflation, and a store of value during economic downturns.

Analysts are bullish on gold’s prospects, with Goldman Sachs Research predicting a price target of $3,700 per troy ounce by the end of 2025. Factors such as rising demand from central banks and uncertainty surrounding U.S. tariff policies are driving this positive outlook for gold prices.

For those interested in tracking the historical performance of gold, Yahoo Finance offers a comprehensive tool for monitoring gold prices since 2000. Whether you’re a seasoned investor or a newcomer to the world of gold investing, staying informed about market trends and economic indicators is crucial for making sound investment decisions.
